- Humayun Saeed recently interviewed by Sania Mirza Malik and Shoaib Malik.

- Saeed said that his role as Dr. Hasnat Khan in the series was brief but well-written.
Humayun Saeed is one of the Pakistani actors who has been successful in transitioning from supporting roles to major roles in cult classics. Saeed is hailed as one of the greatest actors to ever dominate both small and large screens. He has built a name for himself in Hollywood and Bollywood, the former of which brought him international acclaim for his acting skills. Saeed has a distinguished history in Pakistani show business, and he enjoys reflecting on his past in interviews. This is what he did most recently on The Mirza Malik Show, which is hosted by the sporting power couple Sania Mirza and Shoaib Malik.
The most important question Humayun Saeed was asked during his interview with the famous couple was, “How does it feel to be Humayun Saeed after 25 years?'” Saeed replied, “I come from a conservative family and my father, being religious, didn’t want me to work in the acting industry so I hid my first project from my parents. Eventually, they found out from other people, and surprisingly enough, my father didn’t school me.”
The Bin Roye actor chuckled as he said that back then, if he went out and someone recognized him, he “felt being Humayun Saeed.”
The 51-year-old actor discussed his Netflix debut in the hit series The Crown, which catapulted Saeed to global fame, and said that despite the season’s nine episodes, his part, Dr. Hasnat Khan, was “brief but well-written and left an impact on the entire series.”
The renowned actor from Punjab Nahi Jaungi remembers how intimidating the project initially was for him. The Project Ghazi actor claimed that Elizabeth Debicki “helped” him “calm his jitters” and seamlessly transition into his part.
The Pakistani heartthrob claimed that Debicki’s remarks off-screen helped him gain confidence because he is a rather shy person. Saeed, an actor with numerous awards and a track record of achievement, firmly believes that “practice makes a man perfect.” No matter what profession you are in, the Meri Zaat Zarra-e-Benishan star opined, “You can always do better no matter which profession you’re in.”
The Meray Paas Tum Ho actor asserted, “It is challenging to produce a picture every year,” despite having a number of economically successful ventures. Making a movie, working on the plot, and involving the production staff takes at least two years.
Saeed was more than delighted to reflect on his experience and share it with the audience and hosts after traveling a far distance from Inteha to The Crown and a number of other projects in his pipeline. Saeed hummed Dilbar Mere when asked what song he used to sing in his early days of struggle.
Saeed has lately appeared in the films Bin Roye, Meray Paas Tum Ho, Ehd-e-Wafa, and The Crown. The following films starring Saeed are Love You Guru and Ma Wagas Nahi Jao Ga.
